Recent development in the field of information and communication technologies (ICTs) , the sharp growth in education, and the new delivery mode of education is transforming the forms of learning and instruction. As a result, educators and training developers need not only to rethink their approaches to teaching and training but also decide how technologies can support the learning or teaching process .

The objective of education is not just making a student literate but also make him a good human being.

It is challenging to incorporate moral and ethical values into the students in e-Education.
